Hello I picked up fitness and aerobics in the mid 80’s. At first I did it to stay in shape after the birth of my lovely daughter. Soon I was in to the groove and decided to become an aerobic instructor. As I was an instructor in several Fitness studio’s, I rolled into weight lifting in the early 90’s. At first to build up a tonic body. Very soon I was into lifting weights. As a joke I entered my first regional bodybuilding contest in 1994 and won it. From there I entered the French championships in 1994, without success. The next year I became French Bodybuilding Champion in 1995, 1996 and 1998. Over the last to years I did a lot of training and concentrated on building muscle. In 2001 I entered the French Championships with the World Physique Federation (WPF). I won the French in may and the European Cup in Spain begin June. I am very much in to building my body the best I can. This doesn’t leave me a lot of time as I am working full time as a secretary during the day. At lunch time I am training in the Fitness studio. In the evening I do a lot of cardio training, running and aerobics. One of my favorite hobbies is cooking. As I am on a diet most of the year I am very much in prepairing low calorie meals. In the off-season I enjoy being a cook and let my fantasy work. I enjoy the beach in the summertime. Feeling the sun on my skin is awesome. I also enjoy taking care of my look. Being very feminine is one of my goals. Having my nails manicured, my hair and skin taken care of is one of my priorities. I hope you will enjoy the attached pictures. I wish you all the best and god bless you all.
